Posted under: bile, society

From a May article in the Anchorage Daily News:

The State of Alaska will sue to challenge the recent listing of polar bears as a threatened species, Gov. Sarah Palin said Wednesday.

She and other Alaska elected officials fear a listing will cripple oil and gas development in prime polar bear habitat off the state’s northern and northwestern coasts. (…)

Climate models that predict continued loss of sea ice, the main habitat of polar bears, during summers are unreliable, Palin said.

    It’s always been a sore spot with me that Alaska doesn’t belong to Canada. Repercussions of American interests there often trickle out to Canada and there’s little we can do about it.
